And how many consoles do you know that can do that and provide a power boost when it's docked? How many of those have detachable controllers, motion control and HD rumble? Nintendo is the first mainstream console to do all of that. It's a pretty unique console and it definitely stands out compared to XBONE and PS4, for better or worse. 

lmao? What is exactly innovative of it getting more power when it's docked? Detachable controllers? 

All they did was take the Wii remotes and put it on a handheld, again, it's not innovative, it's actually something we've seen.

And just because it's the first to do something, doesn't mean it's innovative.

Wii U prototype controller. It's not terribly difficult to see where the Switch concept comes from, it's largely basically a redo of the Wii U. 

Though actually being portable and only being semi-portable is possibly the difference between 15 million unit sales and more like 40-50 million. 

Also the blue = left, red = right seems to be some kind of Nintendo thing or an interesting coincidence.
